Memorial Stanko Radikon

On September 11, 2016 Stanko entrusted us with his whole life, his teachings, his wines and his vineyards, with the responsibility and honor of continuing the routeway he started.

For anyone who would like to contribute to a good reason, we organize together with his closest friends, a big “celebration” for his birthday.

On December 20th, therefore, in approximately every couple of years, we involve winemakers and restaurateurs from many areas of Italy and from Slovenia and Croatia in a tasting dedicated to his memory, to remind us how wine unites rather than divides and the comparison, although sometimes combative – but always respectful and honest – has been for him (and it is for us) a reason for growth. It is a good opportunity to reflect and to constantly improve yourself.

Živijo Stanko! “živijo” in Slovenian, his mother language, can be translated as the “cheers” which was used in the past as a wish for life and as a daily greeting, that he used to toast by raising the glasses. Živijo Stanko! To you! To life!
